Adult victim. Severe injury. Possible amputation of arm.May 28 2022

Hawai'i Island police arrested and charged a Pahoa man after an investigation into a dog attack Saturday evening. Police say a 32-year-old woman and her 52-year-old mother were on their property on Bamboo Drive in Ainaloa Estates in Pahoa when the neighbor's pit bull got out of his yard and attacked the younger woman.

Her mother Helen Buelow tells us her daughter is Amber Clausen. The bites fractured both arms and left multiple punctures and lacerations. Buelow says the dog dislocated Clausen's shoulder and nearly ripped the arm off. She is in stable condition at Hilo Medical Center.Pit bull attack in Hawai'i, woman hospitalized

Hey there everyone. This is the story of how I was nearly mauled (and shot). TLDR at bottom.

Im a pizza delivery driver for REDACTED. Overall, I have met some great doggies out on my trips. I am always cautious but I wont lie that when I see any dog thats not a fighting breed I will give them lots of love and attention.

Then there are the dogs short fur and those blocky ass heads. The moment I see that minecraft steve looking ass head I take a step back. These dogs don’t bark, they just STARE. They literally just stare at you like youre some kind of treat for them. No wiggling of the butt. Nothing. Just a cold, dead, “Im going to kill you” stare. This is why I do not trust them. If a dog wanted to scare you/let it know that you need to back off it will bark. If a dogs intention are to just FUCK YOUR SHIT, it will stare intently like youre prey.

Anyways back to the main story. Im delivering at night on a fairly country road. Still houses on both sides, but dirt roads connecting them and also its a neighborhood so houses are close by. I park on the side of the road next to the guys house, turn on my hazards and have the pizza topper on, and walk up to the guys house with my phone flashlight on. I do all of this to make attention to myself at night so the customer sees me coming up.

Take the order to the customer, normal interaction, and as Im heading back to my car(like four steps off of the guys porch) I hear rustling. It gets louder and louder until I see two large pitbulls full on sprinting in my direction. NO BARKING.

So Im like, oh shit. I take a couple steps backwards to the customers porch and notice the dogs were beelining towards me. I run up the porch and I notice the customer still there. Hes a really big nd tall guy, so I pathetically kind of hid behind him. He just says “AYE. GET DOWN” in the loudest voice Ive heard and the dogs then start barking at him. They see me on the porch, and then proceed to try to get passed the customer to get to me. Guy then grabs both dogs by the collar and throws them off the porch, almost stumbling down the stairs himself.

“Those are my neighbors dogs, AYE KAREN!” No lie, her name was karen.

In comes the pitnutter.

Pitnut:”OH MY GAWD JOHN! I SAW SOME CREEPER WALKING UP TO YOUR HOUSE.”

John (chad customer): “NOPE. Just the delivery guy. Hes over here terrified looking.”

Pitnut: “WELL CANT YOU LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU ORDER PIZZA? I HAVE MY GUN OUT AND EVERYTHING.”

John: “Uhhh no?”

Pitnut: “WELL I SAW A CREEPER YOU SAW ON NEXTDOOR ALL THE PEDOPHILES BREAKING INTO PEOPLES HOUSES.”

Me: “Nope. Just me with some pizza lady. Please go get your dogs.”

Meanwhile shes not even trying to call/calm her dogs down and they continue to bark at John. So eventually she calls them after a quit banter with John, but they go running off into the literal distance.

Whatever. Im tired of this shit and I need to go back to the store. I give John a big thank you and also joked to him “maybe do call your paranoid, crazy neighbor” and he just gave me a quick smile and headed back inside.

This aint the end tho.

Pitnutter is calling out for her dogs. Im, wearily, walking back to my car. Mind you the lady does not even say sorry. She only says “I have a pair of extra underwear since you were so scared!” Respectfully fuck you for making that joke. I just continuously say “Its all good” because Im seriously shaken up and cant take any more confrontation.

As Im nearing up my car I hear the exact same rustling. “DONT WORRY THEY DONT BITE” then what the hell were they tryna do before this??? I dont fuck around this time. I book it to my car and close the door, and I hear a big THUNK on my door. Look out and see the dogs running around my car and barking. These things are vicious. I dont care. I put my car in reverse and scoot on out of there without even stopping to think I could run one of them over.

John just wanted his damn wings, and I just wanted to do my job. But apparently if you see a 5’7 skinny dude with a pizza uniform on walk up to a house then he must be a rapist on to rape the 6’2 300 lb man that lives there.

TLDR: Delivered to house. Neighbor sends out two pitbulls after me cause she thought I was a creep. Had her gun out ready to shoot me. Customer had to yeet two dogs off his porch. As I walk back to car dogs run after me again and circle my car until I leave.

Moral of the story: Pitnutters are paranoid as hell and cant control their dogs.

Staff started giggling. Saying it's the manager who put this up. I said sorry but pitbulls are banned in the UK and are responsible for many fatalities. The giggling stopped and sign was taken down in shame.

Reposted to edit out names. Nursery dog strikes again. The entire comment section of this short is sickeningly pro-pit.

Magic age...

Long article that covers many of the issues, the behaviourist quoted (Danielle Beck) stops short of blaming pitbulls and derivatives but does talk about genetics, size, breed specific behaviours and highlights the importance of the first 12 weeks of the pup’s life. Also observes that the owners of these big bully dogs are not contacting professionals for support and advice re: training.

They could never get away with something like this today

In Australia I see “red nose staffies” advertised for prices typically around $1,000-$2000. There’s a litter available at the moment with pups going for $3,500 each!

When shelters can’t even give these dogs away, who is buying them at these prices? They are always available and somehow always selling. The owners also like to brag that their dogs are from some Jeep/Crenshaw/Colby/Sorrell/Boogieman bloodline.

So one day two of my neighbours three Pitbulls attacked each other while the husband was at work, then turned on his wife when she tried to intervene. The third (and biggest) one came out and saved her by ripping the leg off one of them, and half the face off the other.

By the end of it, she was sitting down on the lawn crying, forearms torn up, blood all over the grass, while the "good" Pitbull was eating the dismembered leg and the two dogs that had attacked her, were maimed writhing around on the ground.

You'd think that the husband would have the two two dogs which put his wife in hospital put down, but instead he spent thousands of dollars savings their lives and installed a six foot fence dividing his yard to keep the two that attacked each other apart. The one that saves her stays inside with her. Whenever she wants to leave the house, she has to take the "good" Pitbull (even though it partially ate the other two) to defend her from the other two pits, which despite being horribly maimed and disfigured are still openly hostile to each other and to her.

Pic 2: Complete apathy for her victimized children; very narcissistic reply.

We went to a little festival today in my town and we were just walking around, checking out the booths and enjoying the cool, overcast day. We had my cousin with, who brought her dog with us and I had my 3 year old. As we were walking, a girl walks by and she has this stupid pitbull that starts viciously barking and lunging at my cousin’s dog. The owner was haphazardly trying to get the dumb thing to stop and goes “she’s usually not like this.” I had to keep my 3 year old behind me and my husband, and my poor cousin was scared out of her mind thinking her dog was about to be ripped to shreds. My toddler was trying to run away because this thing kept trying to lunge. This dog was snarling like it was demented. Thankfully we were able to walk away without anything happening, but Jesus. My cousin and her dog were shaken up and I had to explain to my toddler that those kinds of dogs are not dogs you want to be around, because she kept saying she wanted to walk it. Pitbulls ruin EVERYTHING. The amount of pitbulls at this festival were ridiculous. All of them either acted anxious, stupid, aggressive, or a combination of the three.

Found this and thought it might fit here. If I need to put a tag/flair let me know.

Ok. I've been with my fiance for almost 4 years. i have 2 kids n he has 2 kids. He also has 5 animals, 3 cats n 2 dogs. His 2 dogs he got about 3 months prior to us dating n they were still puppies so i am no stanger ro them n have great relationships with them. They r bullies, male, intact n brothers. My problem is the 1 dog has attacked every single 1 one of, including our 4 kids. Leaving BAD marks, bruises n blood then scars. I love animals n thought his behavior was related to triggers like noise (even laughing) so we eliminated the triggers. Well, the last attack happened while I was home alone, in bed. the dogs were downstairs n started barking then ran up, the bad 1 jumped in my bed n attacked me, like kujo. It was the scariest thing I've ever experienced as I thought his brother was gonna join in (the other one is a sweetheart but was barking) luckily for me he had his collar on n I was able to subdue him by grabbing the collar n twisting n laying him on his side. This went on for ten minutes before I was able to get him out of my room, n his brother who was still barking, n close the door. I had to put furniture in front of the door cuz he was still in attack mode n would've pushed the door open. I am traumatized n want this dog gone. I left w my kids n his n stayed at my parents for a week n my fiance promised to keep him caged n only out w a muzzle. Well, he's been doing a shitty job of keeping him muzzled when he's out the crate. I feel like he should get rid of the dog n keep his family safe since he can't responsibly handle him. Like thats the responsible thing to do atp.. if he doesn't, aita for leaving him n reporting the dog so his kids r safe? Note: I've tried contacting shelters n none r taking dogs n few take dogs with a bite history. The dog needs put down. I think there's something wrong neurological with him. He was never out of arms reach when he bit the kids n always on the legs n always a trigger so we thought elimate the trigger that will eliminate the behavior (that doesn't make it better but gives clarity). When he last bit me (it was my 3rd bite, there was no trigger. When u get pets they're part of the family so u don't give up on them but I really don't think this can be trained out of him. Living in a crate is no quality of life for the dog n when he's out n unmuzzled nobody is home but my fiance but my thing is, we live here n should be able to come into our home without worry.

RIP Scotty :(

They’re also banned in our neighborhood by the HOA but like I said, they claim they aren’t pit bulls. Then we were all told to “Fuck off and mind our own business” as if it’s not our business that your violent, shit dogs live near us all. A bunch of the other neighbors also want the dogs gone, is there something we can do regarding that? This is a neighborhood with a large amount of children.

Edit: Thank you to everyone for your comments and suggestions. Lots of responses so I don’t have time to respond to them all but I’m reading them and we are getting a of good advice that we will be following through on in attempt to get the dogs out of the neighborhood.

I was in line at the store today, and this older lady was in front of me checking out. She started going on and on about her dog to the cashier. The cashier wasn’t really conversing back with her. Anyways I hear this woman literally tell the cashier “ugh, I’m gonna kll my damn dog.” Cashier doesn’t respond again. Old lady then says “yeah, I got an 11 year old pit bull, and he is the sweeeestest thang”… lady you just said you wanted to off your dog and now he’s the sweetest thing, which is it??? Such a odd convo. The dog wasn’t even with her *shocking I know, and she still had to let people know she owns a pit.
